Today in Gay History - 12/5/11: Bent (Another slow news day but still important) |
|
December 5
1979 - A TV critic reviewed the play "Bent," saying that the play about two homosexuals who died in a concentration camp had "nothing at all to do with the real tragedy of the holocaust," and called the play's message insignificant.
